@paul beenis Ehh, you'd think it'd be "ass hot" cause asses, including farts are hot. Well, not hot, but tepid. So ass-tepid.

Matching the pitting after your flattened your weld by hammering sandpaper was a nice touch. Never would have thought of that, but it seems to have worked very well. Nice job, mate.

It's not just that this series is awesome. We all know it is awesome. It's the joyous little pythonesque moments of lunacy that make it truly amazing.

That thing is awesome, now you can use it to do a restoration on an old barn to turn into a tool museum for all of the awesome stuff you have collected.

The nice thing about a lot of white oak used in the tool's construction is rigidity without weight. The mortise and tenon construction demonstrates this tool was made to last, and could be carried up to the rafters to drill and install the wood pegs in the beam construction of barns and wooden buildings. Using the hand tools that resided in the old carpenter's tool box to restore the shape instead of grabbing a router was very interesting. I agree about using 40 grit sandpaper to restore the patina to the repaired casting. Work of art.

Изключително съм възхитен от начина на реставриране на стари,но годни за употреба машини.Младежа работи с ум и ръце,но влага и сърце.Много си падам по ризата,с която работи-точно копие на ризите на фермерите от далечния Запад... Браво...

I've been a carpenter / joiner for about 16 years and I've never seen a spoke shave like that!

Thank you for taking the effort & time to make & post these videos. I find them oddly satisfying - a great mix of antique tools, craftsmanship, restoration skill & humor, all in one package you can't stop watching once you start the video. Excellent work sir!

Thankfully we have video cameras for guys like me that take stuff apart that is more complicated than our brains. Great restoration!

I just picked up one of these at an old equipment auction. I can't wait to start using it. Thanks for the detailed shots of your restoration. I learned some helpful things about this neat old tool.

Thanks for teaching me that there is such a thing as an augur file. I have a big box of old bits that I now know aren't junk!

I have to say, this is one of my favorite restorations of yours. I like all the power tools that are done, but this has a real clean look to it and the visible mechanics are just gorgeous. Job well done.

Now this is a tool worth restoring, this type of manual drill is not only rare, but also still useful, in some cases even better than modern power tools. Whatever you decide to do with your other restored items keep this one in your workshop, you'll find it priceless if you do more intricate woodwork in the future. If you can't find more original drill heads you should be able to modify modern ones to fit, you'll find smaller diameter ones more useful whenever you need to drill angled holes in hard wood consistently and without damaging the surface.

At first glance it looked like a fairly simple tool to restore. However, that was without all the woodwork replacement. An old tool lives again!

These are awesome tools, but most typically found in the condition you did. Such a blessing to see them given life again! A metal lathe would be nice but, most of us don’t have the money or talent to operate one so it’s great to see that this can be done, with the right tool condition starting out, without all the fancy restoration tools!! Until the addiction gets a firm grip…then the tools will come…even if it means not eating for a couple of weeks!!! We can do that…😳😁

Yeah, we could tell the guy turning the wood wasn't you, his hands were clean as hell!

Hey, Bruce. My Ma was senior person at an old folk's lodge for 20+ years. Rumour got around back in the 90's that rubbing WD into your joints alleviated the worst of arthritis symptoms. Got to be quite a fad amongst the grey hairs for a few months, until they started to drop from kidney failure. She lost two or three fellows to that.

Once upon a time Wired Magazine ran some through a GC/MS web.archive.org/web/20140119014037/www.wired.com/science/discoveries/magazine/17-05/st_whatsinside : basically mineral oil plus aliphatic (straight chain) hydrocarbons that look a lot like kerosene :-) None are particularly an issue for kidney toxicity (I was a biochemist/analytic chemist once upon a time), but your story sounds like the time that the big fad was DMSO rubbed on the skin for arthritis. DMSO doesn't necessarily cause kidney damage itself, but it transports anything dissolved in it into the body through the skin barrier. There were a lot of dodgy DMSO vendors selling bottles of the gunk taken right from industrial drums of the stuff contaminated with who knows what. the WD40 MSDS just has the usual warnings about hydrocarbon toxicity: CNS depression, skin and gastric irritation, etc. www.wd40company.com/files/pdf/sds/mup/WD-40_Multi-Use_Product-BULK_US_GHS_8-25-15_.pdf
